As Jews, a community that has long understood the dangers of systemic oppression and the importance of fighting for justice, we must stand up now for our transgender citizens, who are facing legal and social challenges that threaten their rights and dignity. We must ensure that we do not repeat the mistakes of history. It is easy to draw a parallel between Martin Niemöller’s “Then they came...” poem and what we are witnessing today. In light of this, we say... First they came for the transgender people, and I did not speak out—because I was not transgender. Then they came for the immigrants, and I did not speak out—because I was not an immigrant. Then they came for the right to abortion, and I did not speak out—because I did not need an abortion. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me. Never again!!

I have a brother who's trans and feels erased & deleted. I hate that!

My son is transgender and deals with enough issues and pain! Especially now with Trump as president! Everyone should be able to live the life they choose to! Not one person walking this earth should be judged or judging anyone else! Help the helpless!!

I am sharing this because I am part of the LGBTQ+ community and I just feel like this situation could have gone different had people listened to him instead of turning the other cheek,you can't tell me that being in a lodge like that,that people didn't hear stuff that should have been reported right away that ultimately could have saved his life ...this whole story has me sickened coming from my home town...I moved away from the Seneca falls,Geneva Ny area may of last year to better my life and it just seems like every day since I moved I either see a tragedy on fb or I hear about it from my family and friends...although I did not know Sam or his family his story tugs at my heart strings and everyone deserves justice....Be the change you want to see in the world is a motto I live by everyday....

I am a member of the LGBTQ Community and I am Horrified but what these "People " did to Sam !!! I Am Also Petrified for My Trans Brothers and Sisters because of the way the current Administration is trying to Remove Their Rights and Existence Is Only going to add to the Amount Of Sick Individuals thinking They can get away with Similar Acts !!!!

This whole situation is unacceptable, from point A to point z. To fail a human being that reached out for help, at a human service office, and was IGNORED, and lost their life because of blatant disregard for someone's safety, is absolutely disgusting. And patties lodge, do not get me started about that shithole. There are several of those in the Ontario County area that are filled, FILLED, with disturbing people. Something had to have been heard, especially with the amount of torture sam endured. Close them down. JUSTICE FOR SAM!!!!!!

My heart goes out to Sam family. I have wanted to make a post or comment on a post but I'm afraid I would lose it. I am mother of a daughter who transition 8 yrs ago but a new since she was 4 listen to news and reports this right here that scares me for her because of people ignorance and stupidity. This should never had been ignored by these places and should be held accountable as well as those 5 maggots. So who ever is reading this petition do what's right for Sam and her family and anyone in future that needs help
